What Would Richmond Have Needed to Prove for a Five-Year Flag Plan to Be Real?

The full RTSSG member feature, The 5-Year Flag Plan — Bold Vision or Richmond Reality? 🏆, starts with a set of facts worth putting back on the table.

Richmond had publicly framed a return to premiership contention on roughly a five-year horizon, placing a date around an otherwise open-ended rebuild.

What evidence would have to appear along the way for that timeline to remain credible?

Which milestones matter before wins arrive: player development, list age, system, availability, retention, recruiting power, competitive margins — and when would the plan need to be recalibrated?

Is that actually the right way to read it? What changes when another piece of evidence is added? What would contradict the obvious explanation? Who or what does this put under pressure? What would Richmond need to prove next?

That is the member investigation. Read The 5-Year Flag Plan — Bold Vision or Richmond Reality? 🏆 for the evidence, the competing explanations and the conclusion RTSSG reached.
